It might not be a mistranslation: maybe by this point, the people of Hyrule think of Ganon as a force of nature more than a person. Like we name hurricanes, he's just this godawful catastrophe that shows up every few years, wrecks everyone's lives and then goes away again.

that lines up with how ganon was represented in link between worlds. everyone kind of treated ganon like he was a mindless evil force, instead of a dude with agency and schemes and whatnot, to the point where yuga just kind of turns into him at the end

remember when everyone was calling it the best game ever when they were looking at the trailers and then when it was released it turned out to be a steaming pile of dogshit because the trailers were bullshit

because from the reactions in this topic it doesnt look like you do

uhhhh

no man's sky didn't invent open world games? the criticism lobbed at that game was there was no actual goals or story in an otherwise pretty beautiful game, which we obviously know isn't the case in a zelda game. it's a weird comparison to make. any pretty, openworld game doesn't warrant it just because of those details.

but also rather a lot that the trailers completely misrepresented the content of the game

what im saying is that its a very bad plan to get hyped over some trailers because they are many times a very poor representation of a games quality

Alright, I went over to my doctor and all he did was give me a smirk and a high-five

no mans sky:

from what I figured, most of the shit that game got was about one only needing to visit a handful of planets before having seen the full extent of what went into the world generation process

which is also a weird comparison to make
unless I missed the memo on BOTF having procedurally generated dungeons or similar

real quick edit:
also, I think they might have lowered the quality on the graphics a bit since the earlier trailers
and if that's the case, then I'm guessing they maybe spent sufficient time on the important bits of the game that are supposed to make it good

I mean this trailer is mostly just really pretty environments and also cut scenes. Like No Man's Sky was an incredibly ambitious game made by the same team that made a simple 2D dirtbike platformer, The new Zelda is a new Zelda from the Zelda people.

That snowswept mountain top is gonna be in the game and that's rad. The deku tree is also gonna be in the game but this time voice acted and that's also cool (bringing out the classic "look on your face line") Could this game still be super lame and unfun to play? Yeah I guess but this is a great trailer for what seems like a promising game.

Zelda BOTW is taking a lot of gameplay elements from the Witcher 3, which in my opinion has the some of the best action RPG/Adventure elements in gaming. Zelda needed an open world overhaul. I'm not one to get head over heels for sexy gaming characters but did I mention the females look absolutely gorgeous in this title?

the difference between no mans sky and breath of the wild is that breath of the wild has been played by tons real people and i havent heard a single negative review. granted nobody has played more than 3% of the game, but personalities i know and trust have said that its worth buying based on that 3% alone

nobody touched no mans sky until day of release. it was a complete unknown, living on the hype generated by a 1 minute long video and *literally nothing else.*

furthermore, the company that made no mans sky was some nobody company who literally hadnt done anything else beforehand. sean murray has some experience in the industry but not on anything substantial. his official bio on the hello games site mentions burnout 3, which is like... oh lord still my beating heart~

meanwhile nintendo is a juggernaut who has personally supplied me with an entire lifetime of fulfilling and, dare i say, emotional video game experiences and i would trust them with all the hype in the world. sure, not every game they release is a success, but after almost 30 years of being a company, during which time MOST games released were really good, then i have every reason to get my hopes up for breath of the wild

for thease reasons, i argue that there is no correlation between NMS and BotW
